The use of gel filtration method allowed us to obtain pure IgM fractions to be tested for specific Toxoplasma serology. The good correlation found in our series between IgM-IFAT and LBCF-H100-TTE performed on pure IgM fractions suggests that LBCF-H100-TTE may be another useful serological tests for detection of IgM antibodies although false negative results might occur when LBCF-H100-TTE is performed on IgM fractions on cord sera.

Abstract

The use of gel filtration method allowed us to obtain pure IgM fractions to be tested for specific Toxoplasma serology. The good correlation found in our series between IgM-IFAT and LBCF-H100-TTE performed on pure IgM fractions suggests that LBCF-H100-TTE may be another useful serological tests for detection of IgM antibodies although false negative results might occur when LBCF-H100-TTE is performed on IgM fractions on cord sera.
